⚠️ Important Disclaimer

This project is configured with the developer's Azure AI Agent Service, Azure Maps, and other API credentials for demonstration purposes only.

You MUST replace all API keys, endpoints, and credentials in appsettings.json with your own before deploying or using this application. The developer's services may be deactivated, rate-limited, or removed at any time without notice.

The platform currently uses in-memory JSON storage — all data resets on app restart. For production use, integrate a persistent database (Azure Cosmos DB, SQL Server, etc.).
